Goode earns recognition

Written for your enjoyment by: Raff

Jeremy Goode's 21 point 9 steal performance was recognized as the fourth best performance of the week by Eurobasket.com in the LPB. The performance helped Goode's Penafiel team upset Illiabum 75-63 to even its mark at 1-1.

With the steal performance Goode now leads the LPB in steals through two rounds with 6 per contest. He is also averaging 18.5 points per outing.

Richard Oruche, the Nigerian-American from Illinois-Springfield, was named the top player with 24 points 8 rebounds and 3 assists. His team Ginasio moved into first place with an 81-80 win over Academica.

About thefanblog

The Mount FanBlog is hosted by Ryan Raffensperger a CPA in Gettysburg, PA - Raffensperger, Martin & Finkenbiner, LLC . The firm was started by his father, a Mount grad, and has served customers in SouthCentral PA and Northern Maryland for 40+ years.

The younger Raffensperger has loved the Mount as long as he can remember, which basically means 1981 - and remembers the true #GloryDays of Memorial Gym. He remembers the players from those days to the athletes who play at Knott Arena today. And if it's a #MountMayhem day, it's going to be a good day.

He holds a Syracuse University degree in broadcast journalism. He has broadcast high school, college & minor league of all sports in his past, and regularly covered high school football for his home town paper. So the blog does make a little sense.

The blog was at one point much more active, but the advent of Twitter (follow @themountfanblog) has made writing a little less important. But he hopes that the balance swings back in favor of more traditional content soon.
